Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
I normally wouldn't share something like this but I can't seem to let this one go. On February 6th sometime in the evening someone had enough nerve to do a hit and run leaving my friends new Ford Fusion damaged beyond belief, where his car was parked directly outside my friends house at 172 Giles. I would like the publics help to find this person who did such a terrible thing. It's one thing to hit someone's car, but another to leave this much damage and get away with this. Karma will get you!! So please help by sharing, Thank you so much
I normally wouldn't post this but it angers me that somebody out there can go on with their day without a guilty conscience. On February 12th while working, my car was hit in the Freshco plaza on Malden Rd between the hours of 9-3pm. There was no note left, and unfortunately the cameras were no help because of where I was parked. I realize it's a long shot, but if anybody happened to see anything, please come forward. There is quite some damage on the car. A police report has also been issued. Thank you so much for the help!
Friday night someone decided to take a Joy ride down Albert Rd. They started at Tecumseh Rd and ended at Seminole (not sure if they went past that). They smashed in people's drivers side mirrors. I drove down the street and counted 17 cars. Its a shame. We work hard (people work hard) to own cars, to pay insurance and take pride in what we work for, just to have someone vandalize our property like that and others property. These people obviously don't have anything they take pride in OR never worked hard for anything!
I have two cars that I now have to get mirrors replaced on, at my expense!
Shame on you! I hope you're found and charged!
Thanks a bunch!!
I just took my dog to the vet today for a check-up, booster shots, rabies and Lyme. I even called before hand to get a quote at $118. On my visit today the vet was like a tornado in and out after the shots, did not examine my young dogs teeth/ gums, hips(as he is a very large dog that's always a concern) didn't ask if I had any questions and barely spoke to me in fact. My dog lost 5lbs since the last time he was weighed, I had many questions to ask however the vet didn't give me the time of day. He listened to the nervous dogs heart with a stethoscope and he stated the dogs ears were dirty and infected. (Even though they weren't red or bothering the dog at all. His staff cleaned them and without even asking my consent administered antibiotics. When all was said and done my bill was over $300.
I was charged 60$ for the exam fee which wasn't thorough or even meeting minimum standards, $50 for a q-tip swipe of the ear for the vet to look visually and state there was an infection running no tests at all and $60x2 bottles for the medication I didn't even know I was getting, but when all was said and done was already used by my dog and unable to reuse. I won't name the clinic on here, but the lesson I learned today is to ask questions even if they move to quickly. I feel like the fast talking Whirlwind of an "exam" was part of their tactics to sneak things into the bill.
Please don't misinterpret that I don't care for my dogs and I don't think I know more than the vet, but the amount that they charge I expect to be able to question the vet with my concerns. Seems as though another vet trip will be in the furture to figure out what I went for in the first place.
Lesson learned for me, I'm sharing this so it doesn't happen to you too!
Today, my son was out driving on Cora Greenwood. As a new driver, he is accustomed to following the rules of the road. Unfortunately, not everyone does. We heard you honking your horn, in frustration no doubt, probably because we were driving 'too slow' for you. I'm sorry we were slowing you down, by driving the speed limit. Something very uncommon nowadays, when so many are in such a hurry. It's people like you who make it very difficult for people like us to teach our kids how to drive properly, and obey the laws of the road - laws that apply to you too, by the way. So the next time you're following someone who is driving a bit slower than you're accustomed too, why don't you chill, and think back to when you were a novice driver, and how cautious and maybe a bit nervous you may have been, so that you can have a little more patience and understanding for those just starting out.
To our neighbour in the Lillian & Shepard area. Because you refuse to control your dogs, 91 people now have to go to the Paul Martin building a get our mail. This only shows how incredibly selfish you are. It's been a week. When are you going to smarten up?
A Couple of days ago I was at Walmart with my mother and we had parked in the handicap spot which my mother had a handicap sign for medical reasons. As we were getting out of our car, a man shouted out from his vehicle as he was passing by "you don't look handicap to me."
And that really frustrated my mom because my mother is fighting stage four cancer and has had numerous surgeries. And she can't walk very long distance. And she has other medical conditions.
So dont judge a person by the way they look(even if they don't look handicap) if you don't know their medical history!
This morning, my husband and I were crossing from Devonshire Old Navy section towards the parking lot. We crossed accordingly, through the yellow lines and we proceeded with no cars passing. While we were at the middle about to approach the other side, I noticed a red Caravan driving fast with no intention to stop. She missed us by maybe 3 inches and looked at me and smiled. She was so close to us that if her window was open, I could have grabbed her hair. She was a middle aged lady with wavy dark shoulder length hair. She didn't stop at the Stop sign. She just turned left without even looking if there were other cars (thank God there was not). To that lady, you are lucky it's Lenten Season or else!
